I want a David Byrne suit
An Elvis Presley mirror
Then I could be commercial
And then the world would love me

I could learn to hate men
Play guitar left handed
Then I could be successful
And never be forgotten

I go to bed, then I dream all night
I get up, and I fantasise
I work all day, watch the world go by
Tell myself, it's going to be alright

I could be illmannered
Smash up my life savings
Cultivate a habit
Then I'd be universal
Go down to the crossroads
Get a Britney haircut
A celebrated lover
Then I would be forever

I go to bed, then I dream all night
I get up, and I fantasise
I work all day, watch the world go by
Tell myself, it's going to be alright

And in my head, where the stars align
The air gets hot, when I play with fire
I work all day, dream all night
I tell myself, it's just a matter of time
I go to bed, then I dream all night
I get up, and I fantasise
I work all day, watch the world go by
Tell myself, it's going to be alright
